BACKGROUND Segregation by gender when relating to peers is a well-known phenomenon, with important implications for the development of children and adolescents. The objective of this study was to deeply analyze the intra and intergender relationships that young people establish with their peers, as well as the link that these relationships have with social reputation. METHOD 593 youngsters (50.1% girls) from 5th and 6th years of Primary Education, and 1st and 2nd years of Compulsory Secondary Education (CSE) completed a sociometric test and a social reputation test. RESULTS The main results indicate that girls had a higher number of positive reciprocities with other girls, whereas boys tended to have conflictive intragender relationships. We confirmed that the relationships between the different sociometric indices and social reputation were different in boys and girls. Thus, for example, aggression and sociability were differently related to the establishment of intergender relationships in boys and girls. CONCLUSIONS The results related to previous research are discussed, and some possible educational implications are noted.

同伴关系中的性别隔离及其与同伴声誉的关联。

背景与同龄人有关时的性别隔离是众所周知的现象，对儿童和青少年的发展具有重要意义。本研究的目的是深入分析年轻人与同龄人建立的内部和性别间关系，以及这些关系与社会声誉的联系。方法 593 名初等教育 5 年和 6 年以及义务中等教育 (CSE) 1 年和 2 年的年轻人（50.1% 女孩）完成了社会计量测试和社会声誉测试。结果 主要结果表明，女孩与其他女孩有更多的积极互惠，而男孩则倾向于有冲突的性别内关系。我们证实，不同社会计量指标和社会声誉之间的关系在男孩和女孩中是不同的。因此，例如，攻击性和社交性与男孩和女孩建立跨性别关系的关系不同。结论 讨论了与先前研究相关的结果，并指出了一些可能的教育意义。
